I still have one remaining issue, after inspecting some of my profiles, I noticed the single shaper curve can be a bit bumpy. On most photo's I've checked so far this does not seem to have a visual consequence. However, is there a way to smooth the single shaper curve? In other words, not to change the general shape, but only to remove smaller deviations... Regards, Pascal de Bruijn
